Hi.

My name is Andrea Tonacchera, I'm the founder of Ad Hoc, the company that develops and markets DOCS, the scanner software for non-geeks.

If you manage in-house document scanning projects, and you are responsible for hundreds, thousands, or hundreds of thousands of pages in your company, you have already seen the scanner software that comes bundled with your scanners or digital copiers.

Andrea Tonacchera, first user of scanner software DOCS
user - not a geek
  

And if you were just searching the web for a scan software, odds are you probably aren't fully satisfied for what you've received.

Great pieces of scanning software, but often too complex for operators who only need to scan quickly and reliably, without getting crazy in a nightmare of features.    
Furthermore, those programs are often missing a whole set of important capabilities to enhance the readiness and the usability of the documents to scan.

Scanner vendors have added lots of capabilities to their hardware devices. Scanners are today reliable, robust, and flexible in managing a variety of original types.  
But complexity offered to the high-end, super-professional user hurts the needs of the remaining 99% of users who just need a user-friendly, intuitive, time-saving program that meets their needs.

Here's where Docs can help you.
Because there is an unsatisfied need of a friendly scanner software encompassing all functions required to manage document scanning workflows in a simple way.
And t
his is exactly where DOCS fits. An easy-to-understand and easy-to-use software to scan paper documents, edit them (cleanup, cut areas, remove borders, deskew, despekle, import logos, etc.), and finally convert to PDF.

All options are available through a fully iconic interface, with intuitive mouse driven operations. Any user, no matter his technical knowledge, can scan documents and make them ready for archiving, distributing, or publishing on the web.


You'll find in this page links to the video and to an image gallery of the software. A fully functional trial is available too. But before leaving you to your evaluation, I want to briefly share with you what I consider to be the most important aspect of this product. 

I'm not here to say that "our software is better".  But we do have something which makes us pretty unique. You see, our core business is software, we are a software company specialized in applications for digital documents. And thanks to this competences, since a few years we have been asked to manage highly sensible scanning projects. So, we do also act as a scanning bureau for very confidential assignments, mainly in the legal and the financial sector.

What does that mean to you? and why am I telling this?
   
Let me explain. 
Due to our experience as a scanning service, we have become the FIRST USERS of our own software. And I can tell you that our internal scanner operators almost always win over our software engineers. If for no other reason, because I want to be one of the users... And if 'the President' says "I'd like this button there", the programmer can be reluctant but moves the button there...

So, this software really allows the average user (me) scan documents as a specialist.

Therefore, if your scanning need to be done by 'normal people', who are not service bureau professionals nor technical geeks, we might have something in common

Good news, isn't it?!

Ok, now keep reading and see if our software can be a good fit for you. 
  
Should you have any question, do not hesitate to contact us to . I'm always copied a copy of such e-mail, and I read all of them personally. I promise you'll ALWAYS get an answer. 

Warm regards,

AT signature

Workflows available with scan software DOCS

Be aware:

  • DOCS is NOT another scan driver. 
  • DOCS is NOT a complex batch scanning and barcode recognition software. 
  • DOCS is NOT a new trendy program for dual processing, image splitting, or esoteric image enhancement. 

DOCS is just the scanner software for 'normal' people, who need to scan hundreds or thousand of pages without getting lost in a gazillion of features developed by IT geeks for IT geeks.

If you want to scan your paper quickly and easily, at the same productivity of veteran scanning professionals, it is the product for you.
